Random BSOD

[zetas]

As I frequently overclock my system, I am used to the infamous blue screen of death, and have somewhat familiarized myself with the overclocking related bluescreens.

The BSOD I got today, however, startled me.

SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION
STOP: 0x0000003B
ndis.sys

As far as I understand, it's related to the graphics card sending lines of memory into the paged memory.
Or something like that.

I'm wondering if anyone knows what could cause this?

I've never received this sort of bluescreen until now.

Hardware:
Phenom II 1090T BE 3.2GHz stock, 3.9GHz OC
Corsair Dominator 2x2GB 8-8-8-24 1600MHz, 9-9-9-24 1533MHz OC
Originally 4x2GB, but two chips are borrowed to a friend
Two XFX Radeon HD6950, overclocked as far as the drivers allow me to.
ASUS Crosshair IV Formula mobo
Corsair TX 750W (80+ certified)
Additional clock:
HT Link: 2000MHz, stock voltage
CPU/NB: 2.7GHz 1.25V

Temperatures are stable and this clock has proven to be stable during the most demanding games.

Currently, my 1TB WDC harddrive has about 12GB of paged memory allocated, while no more than 3GB is used at any time, 2gb average usage.

Applications running at that time:
Synergy (not in a server)
Mozilla Firefox (latest) with facebook and a flash game up
MSN
Several background programs.

Any help is most welcome.

This problem typically occurs when the graphics card drivers pass bad or corrupt data to the kernel. My suggestion would be to first update your drivers (All of them. . . WiFi, Graphics, CD drive even) and if you have no luck there, check your connections. Your cables, cards, everything.

Checked everything after cleaning dust out of the fans, but still keeps the screens coming.
Also uninstalled drivers, did a reboot into safemode and took the rest with Driver Sweeper.
Then reinstalled drivers for just about anything (no wifi), ethernet, audio, chipset, new and fresh BIOS. You name it, I installed it.
All drivers are the latest drivers I could find from the manufacturers.

It appears as if the errors only appear when overclocking, as setting all clock settings on default fixed it, but made my computer slower -.-

There are 2 ways you can look at this:
1) Bad RAM could be the next thing to look at (memtest86, mmm)
2) Your CPU could also be sending/receiving bad threads while you're overclocking

known fact.. after overvolting a cpu for such time.. it will not accept the same overclock at the given voltage. up the volts or be happy with mediocre operation.

Overclocking runs the chip at a faster chip frequency than it was made to run. sometimes the RAM voltage is too low. Run your RAM at its max voltage and start overclocking in 200mhz steps, adding atleast 1/4volt per step.

RAM is actually kept at about 1550MHz (1600MHz stock) when CPU is overclocked, but running at same timings and voltage as is stock. I'll try adding more voltage to the cpu next time. I rarely overclock RAM, as I feel gaining 100MHz just isn't worth risking instability
